In 2011-12, 140 UCLA student-athletes earned all-conference academic acclaim. Finally, community service activities for the program are at an all-time high.

Resource development has always been one of Guerrero's strong points.

In 2004-05, he completed a new multi-million dollar agreement with ISP Sports (now IMG College), a premier national collegiate sports marketing organization.

Guerrero also led the negotiations that solidified the relationship between UCLA and the Rose Bowl, resulting in more than $150 million in renovations and restoration. He also reorganized the External Relations area, in anticipation of major revenue generating initiatives designed to address capital project needs, operational support and program endowments.

Under Guerrero's guidance, UCLA continues to aggressively enhance its athletic facilities, including the completion of the Bud Knapp Football wing of the Acosta Center. In the same complex, the sports medicine and athletic performance centers were renovated and redesigned, and the Olympic sports locker rooms were added on a third level. A new golf practice facility and the Easton Softball Stadium renovation were completed during the 2004-05 season. Spieker Aquatic Center was completed in the summer of 2009.

Improvements to Spaulding Field, the Bruins football practice facility, continue to take place, including the installation of natural turf this Summer. Finally, the $136-million renovation of Pauley Pavilion was completed in October, on time and under budget.

Guerrero came to UCLA from UC Irvine, where he had served as UCI's fifth permanent Director of Athletics for 10 years (1992-2002). During his tenure, the program accumulated conference championships, garnered national rankings, featured graduation rates among the nation's best, and won numerous post-season honors for its student-athletes. In June of 2002 while still at UC Irvine, he was named the 2001-02 Division I-AA/I-AAA West Region NACDA Athletic Director of the Year.

Resulting from Guerrero's resourcefulness and creativity, UCI experienced unprecedented activity in the area of athletic facilities development. In his final five years, Guerrero was the driving force behind $38 million of newly constructed or renovated facilities. These projects included a newly renovated track and soccer complex, a new 64-meter competitive swimming pool, a new baseball stadium and the Anteater Recreation Center, one of the premier recreation centers in the country.

Prior to arriving at UC Irvine, Guerrero worked at Cal State Dominguez Hills, where he led that program to national prominence while serving as Athletic Director for five years (1988-92).

The Bruin Athletic Director earned a Master's degree in Public Administration in 1982 from Cal State Dominguez Hills and was named to the Pi Alpha Alpha Honor Society for Public Affairs and Public Policy that same year.

Guerrero, 60, was raised in Wilmington, CA. He is married to the former Anne Marie Aniello and they have two grown daughters.
